Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is eager to strengthen his attacking options in the summer transfer window after injuries exposed the squad’s lack of depth this season.
With the Gunners likely to fall short in the Premier League title race to Arne Slot’s Liverpool, reinforcing the front line has become a top priority.
Reports from Teamtalk suggest Arsenal are considering a surprising move for Liverpool winger Luis Diaz. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has already indicated that Liverpool are open to offers for the Colombian, creating an opportunity for Arsenal to swoop in.
Diaz’s versatility—capable of playing on both wings and as a forward—has caught Arteta’s attention. This season, he has contributed 13 goals and five assists in 42 appearances across all competitions, showcasing his ability to make an impact in attack.
While Diaz is not Arsenal’s primary transfer target, he remains an option if their top choices fall through. The club’s preferred signing is Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, but competition for the Swedish forward is fierce, with Liverpool also eyeing him as a potential replacement for Darwin Nunez.
For Diaz, a move to Arsenal could provide the chance to stay in the Premier League while continuing to play at the highest level. If the Gunners decide to act on their interest, it could be a transfer too tempting to ignore.
